Cub Scout Day Camp - Adventure Starts Here.
2027 Beneath the Sea
Cub Scout Day Camp is more than a few days of activities. It’s a place where kids discover what they can do. At Day Camp, Cub Scouts get outside, try something new, make friends, build confidence, and experience the kind of adventure that childhood should be filled with. Whether your Scout is attending camp for the first time or counting down the days until they can come back, Day Camp is where Cub Scouting comes to life.
Why Day Camp?
Because kids grow when they get the chance to explore. Every child deserves a place where they can be curious, adventurous, and themselves. Cub Scout Day Camp gives kids the opportunity to step away from the everyday and into a world of discovery, friendship, and fun.
They may arrive excited about shooting an arrow, building something, exploring nature, or playing a new game. But along the way, something bigger happens.
They discover:
“I can do this.”
“I can try something new.”
“I can make new friends.”
“I can be brave.”
“I can lead.”
Those little moments of discovery are what make Day Camp special.
The activities create the fun. The confidence, friendships, and memories are what Scouts take home.
